The Mech Touch novel Chapter 5183

Many people in the audience had become attracted to the idea of obtaining a companion spirit.

Blinky and the Eye of Providence had attracted a lot of mech designers. The ones portrayed in the archival footage had a lot of appeal for mech pilots.

The mechers and associates who attended this conference were highly successful because they constantly worked to bolster their advantages. They were highly competitive in nature and did not want to miss out on a potential benefit that could put them leagues ahead of their immediate rivals!

Everyone understood that red humanity was about to undergo drastic changes. A lot of the old rules would soon be thrown out of the window. Those that did not move quickly enough might get left behind forever!

Many of the attendees understood that cultivation was about to make a comeback due to the ubiquitous availability of E energy radiation. This made companion spirits especially relevant to their lives and careers. The benefits to their own cultivation were too obvious for them to miss this opportunity!

After all, who knew how long it would take for the Red Association to accumulate enough trees and grow enough fruits. There were many members who could make good use of these fruits. If the supply was too low, then it could take years and a lot of MTA merits before they could have their turn.

Both Ves and Jovy scanned the individuals who raised their arms.

Just as expected, many of the volunteers sat towards the front. They were the ones who were most hungry and eager to augment themselves.

The older people sitting in the rear were much more prudent about this kind of stuff. They already possessed a full suite of high-quality augmentations that already produced a lot of satisfying results. Adding a completely new and unanticipated improvement to the mix might disrupt their equilibrium and cause them to become unbalanced.

There was a remarkably high proportion of people who possessed spiritual potential in the audience. This made sense as the weakest mech designers who attended this conference were Journeymen.

However, that still left a lot of mech pilots, mech officers along with regular scientists and engineers who did not possess any advantages in this area.

Ves automatically left them out of consideration. He focused his sights on a younger candidate who would likely exhibit a strong reaction and express a lot of appreciation for gaining a new companion spirit.

He quietly communicated with Jovy over a wireless connection to refine his selection.

"I think it is best to go for a mech pilot as opposed to a mech designer." Jovy advised. "I am already an example of a mech designer who has benefited from a companion spirit. The real decision makers want to take a closer look at how a mech pilot handles this new addition."

"Good idea. It's a shame that neither of the two expert pilots in the crowd have raised their arms. The companion spirit that emerges from one is always a lot stronger from the start."

"Does your fruit even work for them, Ves?"

"I have never tested it, but it should work in theory."

After a quick discussion, they chose to select a 35-year old expert candidate who was in his prime.

According to the record that Jovy was able to access, the powerful pilot not only made excellent attainments in virtual competitions and practice battles, but also spent a lot of time on fighting against alien warfleets in the frontlines.

Although the man had yet to undergo apotheosis, his willpower was strong and vigorous enough to stand out from the audience!

He was the best choice aside from the two expert pilots who adopted a wait-and-see attitude.

Once the expert candidate got called over, he rose from his seat and navigated his way forward.

The man exuded an air of confidence that became more obvious as he got closer.

Ves actually did not know how obtaining a companion spirit would affect his chances of breaking through.

There was a very real possibility that all of the changes to his mind and spirit would cause him to get pushed away from apotheosis.

However, as long as the delay was not too great, it was always worthwhile to get a new companion spirit!

"Here you go." Ves said in a friendly tone as he passed the green companion spirit fruit. "Just bite into it and eat it whole. The process will already begin from the moment you swallow your first piece of fruit, but it is best to go through with it in order to minimize any possible complications."

"Understood, professor." The expert candidate responded as he regarded the fruit in his hand with a careful glance. "Any other instructions?"

"You should relax and allow the fruit to do its work. It might feel unnerving once it goes into effect, but do your best to remain calm and trust that the process will do its work without complications. I think it is best if you sit down."

The expert candidate immediately lowered himself until his uniformed body knelt onto the floor. He then proceeded to lift the fruit to his mouth and bit into it like he would an apple.

The fruit was actually a lot softer than a standard apple or pear. The flavor and density of the fruit was light. This made it easier for the man to swallow it down to his stomach.
